DSE Rear Coilover Conversion Kit - Double Adjustable Shocks (042441-DDS) - 1993-2002 Chevrolet Camaro / Pontiac Firebird
Transform the rear suspension of your fourth-generation F-Body with the Detroit Speed Rear Coilover Conversion Kit. Part number 042441-DDS is engineered for 1993-2002 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird applications with the stock rear axle, replacing the original separate coil spring and shock combination with a Detroit Tuned coilover shock and spring package. Extensive ride-height adjustability lets you dial in the stance, while the double-adjustable shocks deliver the tuning range needed for serious performance without giving up excellent street ride quality.
The 042441-DDS package uses double-adjustable shocks with two independent adjustments and an extensive adjustment range, allowing suspension response to be tailored to the driver and performance demands of the car. Detroit Speed pairs the shocks with 175 pounds per inch coilover springs featuring a 10 inch free length. The system is optimized around an approximately 1.5 inch drop from stock height and requires only minor drilling of the existing axle bracket. All necessary conversion hardware is included, along with the upper and lower coilover mounts and Detroit Speed/JRi spanner tool. Detroit Speed specifically states that this kit cannot be used with factory trailing arms.
